Ten Thousand Feet

Báine was stretched out in a patch of grass a short distance from the entrance to her family's den. She was far enough away that anyone going into it probably wouldn't notice her, but close enough that she could watch and see what was going on. She sighed and rested her head on her forepaws, her ears flicking as a breeze picked up and ruffled her fur. Her mother giving her a promotion at the meeting had made her feel a little better, but the more she thought about it the less confident she felt. She technically knew what her job was supposed to do, but did she really know how to do it? She lifted her head and turned her paws to hold the pink gem dangling from her necklace between them. It matched her pale pink pawpads, blending in perfectly with her paws. Suddenly she heard Creed's howl, her ears perking at the sound before promptly flicking back against her skull again. She pulled herself to her paws uncertainly, giving herself a shake before she hurried to go answer his call. She'd never hear the end of it from her mother if she didn't go. She had thought that Creed was her friend, but then she hardly ever saw him and he didn't want to spar with her so now she didn't know and that uncertainty made her worried and uncomfortable. She spotted him at the edge of the lake and she slowed a bit, padding over to him before stopping a couple of feet away. "Hey, Creed," she said as she pulled a smile onto her lips.
